Slew of Gluten-Free Eateries Open on the Upper East Side

UPPER EAST SIDE — The Upper East Side is quickly becoming an oasis for those who eschew gluten.

There's been an influx in gluten-free bakeries and restaurants opening in the neighborhood in recent months, with even more on the way — including a Rice Krispies cafe called Treat House which opened last week and By The Way bakery, which is set to launch this fall.

DNAinfo New York has compiled a list of spots for those looking to ditch wheat and grains:

Opening at the end of September, this French restaurant offers a completely gluten-free menu including quiches, croque monsieur, pizza, lasagna and its club sandwich.

The eatery, which is still under construction, will be the company's first outpost in America, according to owner Frédérique Jules.

"We want to offer as much of Paris as possible," Jules said. "I have a lot of customers from New York who are visiting Noglu Paris. I love New York City and it is one of my dreams [to open a restaurant there]."

The restaurant is expected to be open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.

► Treat House: 1566 Second Ave., between 81st and 82nd streets

Treat House, which opened July 20, delivers the traditional Rice Krispies treats with a gourmet twist for $2.50 a piece. Each one is kosher, gluten-free and dairy-free.

The rice treats come in a myriad of flavors and in all sorts of forms, including lollipops and ice cream bars.

This is the company's second location. Its Upper West Side outpost opened in 2013.
